Abstract

The present invention provides a barbecue (100) having an outer cabinet (1) which is adapted to fit into a bench top via hole in said bench, said cabinet (1) having an upper periphery adapted to engage an upper surface of said bench, said barbecue including along at least a portion of one side a trough (26) which extends downwardly from said upper periphery, said barbecue (100) having a wall (8) separating said trough (26) from a combustion chamber (2.2) wherein there is located at least one burner (2), whereby said wall (8) includes a viewing panel (8.3, 8.4) so that an operator standing close to said one side can view flame on said burner (2) through said trough (26) and said panel (8.3, 8.4). The present invention also provides a lid (200), a hotplate or griddle (12) and a grease collection system with a removable grease collector (11) which extends along at least a part of a forward edge of the hotplate (12) or grille (1325) so as to receive grease or liquid or other substances therefrom. The present invention also provides a grille assembly (1325) comprising an upper (25) and a lower grid (13) and a drop-in bench barbecue (100).

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION [0001]The present invention relates to barbecues and in particular to flame viewing systems, grilles, lids, hotplates or griddles, and grease collector systems for such barbecues.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]Outdoor gas barbecues are in the main arranged on trolleys. When installed in a bench such installation generally requires that the barbecue be installed in a U-shaped cut-out in a bench top, through the top and front of the bench (see FIG. 30 of the accompanying figures), so that the controls and grease tray, generally located underneath the combustion chamber of the barbecue, can be accessed from the lower front of the barbecue.[0003]However, with increasing market acceptance of outside kitchen areas, prior art barbecues, such as those installed in benches as in FIG. 30 are inappropriate for use in a rectangular cut-out in a middle portion of the bench whereby the bench completely surrounds the barbecue, as in FIG. 31 of the accompanying drawings.[00...
